Chapter 41: verbal and written criticism

Within the pipa round, several great scholars and officials sat on the high platform.

Princess Yong'an disguised herself as a man, with a jade hairpin on her head, which was the one she bought at Wanbaolou. When she heard the noise below, she couldn't help but be angry: "Yuchi Hu, why are you joining in the fun?"

Princess Yong'an had no good expression on Yuchi Hu. As soon as she arrived in the capital, she saw this bold guy bullying a weak woman in the street, and she kept talking nonsense. If it weren't for the beloved son of the Duke of Zheng, she would have beaten this man to death on the street.

When everyone heard the scolding of His Highness the Princess, everyone looked at Master Yuchi.

In public, Yuchi Hu did not bully anyone, and he was not bullied for three days without undressing the tiles. He was confident and helped the scarf above his head: "Young Master Zhao, I, Yuchi Hu, have a poem "Wang Chun and Beauty", and are there anyone who is not convinced?"

Looking up, your arrogance is revealed.

The whole audience was silent.

It is true that no one is dissatisfied, but that poem is not suitable for you to write by Master Yuchi! Who doesn’t know that you bought it secretly, just see through it and not tell it.

Zhao Tianluo had long had an objection to the playboy, and he snorted faintly when he heard this: "I can't call myself a talented person. If you can write another poem, I will ask the current emperor to write a plaque 'The First Talent' to send it to the Duke's Mansion."

The emperor personally named the "No. 1 Talented Man", which is a supreme honor, and is more so than even winning the Sanyuan. Everyone covered their mouths and smiled, but they did not dare to speak out. The princess could tease Yuchi Hu, but they did not dare.

Yuchi Hu was stunned on the spot and blinked his eyes, knowing that the princess was deliberately teasing him. Who is he? He is brother to the crown prince, so how could he be frightened? So he helped the scarf above his head and said in a divine manner:

"Yuchi is ashamed of the title of the first talented man. It is said that if the world learns a stone, I, Yuchi, get a Dou, and the world will be divided into one Dou, and Cao, and I, will occupy eight Dou!"

Cao Gong monopolizes eight dou?

"puff..."

Seeing that the great official Yuchi started to go crazy again, everyone couldn't help but laughed while covering their stomachs.

Yue Jinyu's face was extremely strange: "Everyone knows the talent of Cao Zijian of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but if you only own a fight, you may have passed it."

Everyone knew Yuchi Hu's temperament. Anyway, he was just a joke, and no one took it seriously.

Yuchi Hu was ridiculed by everyone and suddenly became angry: "Who is Cao Zijian?"

Yue Jinyu's face froze and explained patiently: "Cao Zhi."

"Who is Cao Zhi?" Yuchi Hu was even more puzzled.

“…?”

Everyone stopped smiling, all their faces full of strange expressions, wondering how to explain to this big word that they could not read.

Yue Jinyu was smarter and asked with the flow: "What does the Cao Gong mean by Brother Yuchi?"

This is what Yuchi Hu was waiting for, holding his head up and holding his chest at Xicheng: "Of course, he is the Grand Governor Cao Hua. I, Yuchi Hu, rarely met an enemy in my life. In addition to the current emperor, there is only Grand Governor Cao Hua Cao."

“….”

The whole audience was silent.

The talented and beautiful women in the hall frowned slightly when they heard this name. The poetry meeting was originally a place to speak freely, and suddenly mentioned the Kyoto Tai Sui, which everyone avoided, which was naturally a bit disgusting.

Seeing that Yuchi Hu had indeed 'shattered' the whole audience, he took advantage of the victory and rushed back and forth: "If you talk about poetry and prose, Yuchi was only a little successful, while Cao Gong was a great talent who made poetry in seven steps and became lyrics with ease..."

Chen Jingliu was so angry that her whole body trembled slightly: "How can you hurt someone behind your back? If you have anything to say, go and say it in front of Cao Hua."

Most of what everyone said was true that she could not defend herself, but she felt that Cao Hua was cheating on the emperor and directly wrote a letter to the death like her father. Just talking nonsense here is a scholar who is a scholar.

Many talented men were speechless. They dared to go to Kyoto Taisui to say this, wouldn't they seek death? Seeing Chen Jingliu suddenly ran out to say good things, the scholars' faces suddenly darkened. Cao Hua, Yuchi Hu and other princes and nobles did not dare to offend him. What is a daughter who has stepped down as the censor?

Several scholars who had old grudges with Cao Hua immediately asked: "Chen Jingliu, I'm not as rumored as the market. Are you involved in that traitor in order to save your father?"

It was very subtle, but everyone understood the meaning, and it was nothing more than to save her father and commit to a traitor.

Chen Jingliu's face turned pale: "Don't swear by others, Cao Huaqing and I are innocent..."

"Since he is innocent, he framed your father, do you still say good things for him? We need to count what Cao Hua does?"

"I heard that you often go to Wu'an Marquis Mansion alone, no wonder you can afford such an expensive hairpin..."

Everyone was immediately annoyed. Several women who were already jealous were guessing who gave her hairpin. At this time, they suddenly realized and chatted about these private rumors.

The few who had old grudges with Cao Hua were almost hysterical, insisting that Chen Jingliu had a relationship with Cao Hua, and even the word "adultery" appeared.

Noise is everywhere.

Chen Jingliu was alone facing the criticism of thousands of people, and had no chance to explain. The hairpin was originally given by Cao Hua and could not explain clearly.

She has a chaste personality and is now insulted and committed adultery with a man. How could she resist it? It was impossible to take off her clothes and let her have a body test. She could only pull out the hairpin from her head and press it against her throat, and her lips were almost bitten and bleeding:

"I, Chen Jing and Liu Qing, are innocent, why do you need to say anything? Cao Hua is notorious and is at least a real villain, and he is more open-minded than you hypocrites."

This is still a whitewash for Cao Hua.

Several familiar women rushed forward and grabbed Chen Jingliu's persuasion. Other scholars continued to question, and finally turned into scolding, and even charged Cao Hua's crimes one by one. Many literati showed their abilities and even began to discuss how Cao thief should die. Anyway, there was no punishment for the majority, and more than 300 people were here, and it was rare to take the opportunity to vent their dissatisfaction.

"This dog thief should be cut into pieces..."

"It's cheaper to put the oil pan..."

Chen Jingliu stopped in her ears, her eyes were covered in blood, and tears could not be suppressed at all. She still gritted her teeth and said, "No matter whether it is good or bad, you guys are even less likely to be fooled. You guys are just talking and talking..."

Bang!

Among the chaotic crowd, I don’t know who slapped him in the face.

Chen Jingliu was already weak, and her hair was scattered and almost fell down. Her teeth broke into pieces. There were five red tips on her face.

"Bitch, do you have an affair with that traitor, and you deserve to blame me?"

"Bah! I think you are obsessed with the widow, and you want to be the Marquis's wife and want to be crazy..."

"It's time to put you together..."

There are constant scolding.

After being slapped, Chen Jingliu was confused, with grievance and anger intersecting, and tears could no longer be suppressed, but she gritted her teeth and did not cry. She fell to the ground holding the jade hairpin, looking at her angry eyes with hatred, but she could do nothing.

On the target of public criticism, she is a weak woman without power, who can defend her?

She is telling the truth, she is not wrong, but these people are making excuses, so what can she do...

On the outside, Su Xiangning was anxious when she saw it. The woman who was beaten and scolded in the middle of the hall was a regular visitor of Baibaozhai. She had seen it several times. But so many people gathered together, a woman born in a brothel, and the first half of the sentence she could get into.

Dong...dong...dong...dong...

suddenly.

The whole round ground of the pipa trembled gently, and the water in the teacup rippled in circles.

Su Xiangning thought it was an illusion, but in a blink of an eye, she saw a black torrent rushing into the streets and alleys of Yanglou Street.

Horse hooves are like drums beating on the battlefield.

Nearly two thousand black armored officials' swords were silent, and they rushed into Yanglou Street from all directions. Pedestrians on the whole street knelt on the ground, silently as if they were chilling.

The knife is unsheathed and the crossbow is wound.

In the prosperous Yanglou Street, only the rustling of armor and the sound of hoofs made by war horses.

The noisy hall gradually became quiet.

Everyone was confused first, then they fell silent, and their faces turned white one by one!

If you ride a horse outside the palace, you can only be the guards of the emperor!
